I posted this in Chat last night, but didn't get any response. I've name changed for this but joined in 2007.
I know lots of people think their children's rooms are messy, but my sixteen year olds is absolutely disgusting. We've had a lot of problems with her which included social services and police involvement, and we have been told that her room is her sanctuary and we're not to go in there if that's what she wants.
But it's vile. It's as bad as you see on cleaning programmes on tv, it's filthy, and makes me feel sick that it's in our house. We offer her money to clean it, I'd willingly do it myself, or even get a cleaner to come in. She wants new Ikea furniture which we are happy to buy, once there's room to build it.
I feel like I'm at my wits end, and I feel shaky and pathetic writing this. I've seen posts like this before, accompanied by photos of perfectly fine rooms, with maybe a stray sock on the floor, but this is in a different league.
What can I do? Entering her room will cause so much anger and violence, but I can't just leave it any more.
